Quick Question.......

[edit]

♥If needed would men take women's prints and make them into their clothes? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.6.26.198 (talk) 14:19, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

headwear

[edit]

the Vermeer painting The Wine Glass has a good example of hats worn at the time. I will try to add this one soon if there are no objections--T1980 (talk) 01:01, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, perhaps. I think that there ought to be more emphasis on headgear in this. These paintings (I refer to the men) are of the rich in relaxed mood mostly with their hats off. But clearly people in the past wore hats much more frequently than they do today. A favorite picture of mine is of the Gunpowder Plot conspirators (1605) which shows seven of the eight men wearing headgear, some of it quite elaborate. The clear implication is that headgear was obligatory in the outdoors. (Just 'Google' it). They also have beards and moustaches. John2o2o2o (talk) 00:59, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Kings are working class?

[edit]

Why is there a garment that belonged to King Gustav II of Sweden in the Working class clothing section? Item #3. the Buff Coat. The sleeves have silver-threaded buttons and button loops and were originally covered with silk. The moose hide is high quality and well-tailored. This is not something a working class person in the early 17th c. would have worn. It really should be replaced with something else. Wanderingspark (talk) 22:05, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
